Meet Mary

Mary's first career in Public Relations took her to Washington, DC, where she met her well traveled Aussie husband with a profession in the hotel industry. The partnership opened up a whole world of travel opportunities taking her to far-flung destinations such as Australia, Dubai, Monaco, and Turkey, and has provided Mary with a more focused perspective on luxury hotels and experiences. 
Following years of crafting unique travel plans for friends and families on the side, Mary found immense joy in seeing their travel dreams come alive. Guided by her intuition, she decided to embrace her natural gift and founded Songline Travel in 2022. 
As a mother of two daughters who have traveled far and wide from a very young age, it has given Mary valuable first-hand experience to deeply understand what is needed to craft seamless and meaningful multi-generational family trips. 
One of Mary's most celebrated qualities is her ability to listen and understand her clients' needs ensuring that every experience is unique to them and delivers a treasured memory that will endure a lifetime.

Our name

The name “Songline” draws inspiration from our Australian roots, and refers to the Aboriginal paths across the land and sky. Within the belief systems of the Aboriginal cultures amongst Australia, the songline marks the route followed by localized "creator-beings" in the Dreaming. The term “Songline” describes the features and directions of travel included in a song that was sung and memorized by the traveler to arrive safely at their destination.
